Helping Alabamians Across Mobile With Their Personal Injury Issues
Through my law firm, Richard E. Mather Attorney at Law, I provide legal services for people who have suffered serious injuries in Mobile and surrounding areas of Alabama. To me, it doesn’t matter if you were hurt by a faulty product or reckless driver, or if you lost a loved one due to someone’s carelessness. I am here to seek the compensation you need to cover medical bills, pain and suffering and time away from work to grieve or recover.
The Types Of Personal Injury Cases I Handle
If you endure any of the following, I am here to help:
- Car, truck and motorcycle accidents
- Wrongful death claims
- Workers’ compensation and third-party liability cases for injuries on the job
- Products liability, slip-and-falls and other general injury cases
- Medical malpractice
My goal is to provide you with ease and peace of mind so you can focus on your recovery and not on how you are going to afford it.
You Can Seek Compensation For Several Types Of Injuries
You can file a personal injury claim for injuries that scar you inside and out. They include:
- Physical injuries: Broken bones, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, head injuries, neck injuries
- Emotional injuries: Trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression
- Financial injuries: Lost wages, medical expenses, reduced household income due to death of loved one
No matter the type of injury you suffer, I am here to fight the insurance company, hold negligent parties accountable and seek the compensation you deserve.
The Importance Of Seeking Legal Counsel After Getting Hurt
After an accident, slip-and-fall or faulty medical procedure, your insurance company may try to delay or deny your injury claim. If that happens, seeking help from an experienced attorney is of the utmost importance. You want someone on your side who understands the intricacies of Alabama and insurance injury law and who can develop a compelling case to present in a civil court trial. If you have any questions about what I can do for you or how I can help, please do not hesitate to reach out. Call my office at 251-239-3089 today to learn more.
What Should You Do After A Car Wreck In Alabama?
If you have been in an accident, there are several steps that are important to take:
- Move out of traffic if you can.
- Check for injuries.
- Call 911.
- Take pictures and get the names and phone numbers of eyewitnesses.
- Give basic information to the police and your car insurance company.
- Do not answer detailed questions before you have an attorney.
- Contact a personal injury attorney to schedule a free consultation.
- Work with your lawyer to build a strong case for compensation.
Do You Need A Lawyer After You Have Been Injured In A Car Accident?
Maybe not, but it is unlikely that you can recover the maximum available compensation without an experienced advocate on your side. Remember that insurance companies will fight to avoid paying benefits. You need an attorney who will inform you of your rights and fight for you.
How Much Compensation Can You Receive For An Auto Accident Claim?
The amount you may recover after a car or truck accident can depend on many factors, including:
- Determination of fault through accident reconstruction
- Documentation of injuries and losses
- Insurance policy limits
- Whether you file your claim or lawsuit before the statute of limitations runs out, but preferably as soon as possible
What Types Of Workers’ Compensation Benefits Are Available For Workers In Alabama?
Through workers’ compensation, you may get medical bills paid as well as some lost-wage replacement. In addition, if your lawyer discovers that someone who is not your employer contributed to the accident, you may be able to bring a separate personal injury claim against that third party. The third-party liability claim may allow you to recover compensation for your pain and suffering, as well as expenses that workers’ compensation doesn’t cover.
Can You Sue Someone For Wrongful Death In Alabama?
If you are an eligible family member (such as a spouse), you may be able to bring a wrongful death claim against someone who caused your loved one’s fatal accident. Work with a lawyer to help build a well-documented damage claim or lawsuit.
